The Athletic’s Jim Bowden graded the moves of every NL East team this offseason. No team in the division - or in the majors - received a better grade than the Phillies, with Bowden giving them an A+.

The Phillies had the best offseason of any team, and their GM, Matt Klentak, is the early and heavy favorite to win Executive of the Year. And, by the way, if Phillies fans want to get greedy, they could still use a left-handed starter … and Dallas Keuchel and Gio Gonzalez are still on the open market. If either will take a short-term deal, I wouldn’t put it past the Phillies to land one of them.

The Phillies also took a step toward securing their future by signing ace right-hander Aaron Nola to a four-year, $45 million contract extension.

Despite all these moves, the Phillies remain in position to add to their roster, whether it’s free-agent left hander Dallas Keuchel now or two-time American League MVP Mike Trout when he hits free agency in two years.
